Chapter 21

The minute Phebe threw herself in Muriel’s arms, I left the room to give the two of them some privacy for their heartbreaking reunion. Even based on the little bit of information Phebe had shared about Muriel, I knew she was one of the most important people in Phebe’s life, if not the most important. Watching them together, I could feel the love between the two women. It was a stark reminder how much I missed a love like that. Not the love of a family member, but the love of a woman. To know that I was the center of her world and she of mine. I’d missed the intimacy of holding someone close at night, the kisses and touches, the way the whole world melted away when we were in each other’s arms.

I’d also missed the rush of dominating a sub, of giving her everything she didn’t even know she needed, and then providing aftercare once she hit subspace. But then my thoughts turned back to the trust I needed to not only receive from a sub, but to give, and I knew I wasn’t ready for that. My heart couldn’t handle another betrayal.

Once I’d left the room, I met Roger in the kitchen to discuss upping security now that Underwood was dead. We discussed strategies, and he said he’d bring it up with Connor when he checked in after his shift.

Knowing Phebe and Muriel would most likely be talking for a while, I figured I’d go ahead and start dinner. I grabbed some things out of the fridge and pantry and started mixing them all together in a bowl. Meatloaf and a mean omelette were pretty much the only things I knew how to cook. That and tuna casserole. Once I was done, I put the meatloaf in the oven and set the timer. I made a few phone calls while I waited. An hour later, the timer went off.

On cue, just as I pulled the pan from the oven, Phebe entered the room looking tired, but no less beautiful. Her eyes were red and puffy, but it didn’t matter. I still couldn’t keep my gaze from tracking her every move as she settled onto her regular chair at the island.

“Thank you doesn’t even seem adequate.” Her eyes were lit from the inside out. “I can’t begin to tell you what bringing Muriel here means to me. I— I have no words to express my gratitude.”

I felt ten feet tall with her words. Like I could conquer all her demons. In fact, I almost wanted to.

“It was my pleasure. I know how lonely you’ve been here with nothing to do except sit and wait to see what happens with this case. Your being here, away from your friends isn’t ideal. So, I wanted to do something special for you. To help take your mind off the bad shit for a while. I wanted to see you happy.”

I said the last softly. It was the truth though. Phebe deserved to be happy.
